Do your own Googling. Or just bookmark the last Koch expose URL I posted. I'll lead a horse to a URL once, but I can't make you click, or understand an article even if you do click.Those would be separate topics.It seems that Valjean's stealing of a loaf of break is on-topic here,
but the billions stolen by Bernie Madoff, or the billions in pollution by Koch Industries are not.
By the way, Madoff was prosecuted, convicted and received what amounted to a life sentence without parole. Compare that with murderous terrorists like Kathy Boudin or David Gilbert who were released prematurely because of political meddling.
And what particular alleged illegal actions by Koch Industries do you have in mind?
Better yet, approach these discussions with a sincere effort to learn. Instead your exchanges are tit-for-tat sentences of highly variable quality.
Uhhhh. "Caveat car-owner? ? Do you really think your flippant non sequiturs add to your credibility?Again your obsession with Madoff. He got severely punished, far more harshly than say the terrorist BLA/WU bank robbers who murdered three people in the process.Bernie Madoff swindled his clients out of somewhere between $11 billion and $50 billion, depending on definitions.
Caveat investor.Victims also included many charities, pension funds and universities.
And you seem obsessed with calling me obsessed about certain people? YOU are the one who rattles of long lists of the names of car thieves, blacks who reached for their cell-phone, etc.
Oh my. Start with Wikipedia. Follow its links as necessary. IF you make a sincere effort — show your work — and still have trouble finding facts, THEN appeal for help here.He "spontaneously confessed? So nobody was suspecting him, and he just confessed? [citation needed] on that.Some ignorant right-wingers will say that Madoff's prison sentence proves that white-collar crime IS prosecuted, but Madoff wasn't arrested until he spontaneously confessed,
If your "point" is that falling stock prices made Madoff's house of cards very vulnerable, so he confessed early to keep his sons out of the Big House, then ... congrats Captain Obvious!
And the "nobody was suspecting him" shows that you have severe attention deficit. In the very piece you're quoting I mentioned that people had reported their suspicions to enforcement authorities several YEARS earlier!
I'd like to believe you're joking and know that J.P. Morgan and JPMorgan are different entities. But by now it's hard to guess what you "know"When did he confess? He died in 1913.Just today we see that JPMorgan confessed to crimes in one simple matter and agreed to a $200 million fine.
In any event this rejoinder is a good example of your tit-for-tat approach to learning (or "teaching" or whatever you think you're doing).
